Update AWS EKS Kubeconfig

To update your AWS EKS kubeconfig, use the following command. This allows you to manage and access your Kubernetes clusters effectively.

aws --profile default eks update-kubeconfig --name my-cluster --alias my-cluster 

Explanation

This command uses the AWS CLI to update your kubeconfig file. The --profile default specifies the AWS profile to use. Replace my-cluster with the name of your EKS cluster. The --alias my-cluster sets an alias for the cluster in your kubeconfig.

Prerequisites

• AWS CLI installed and configured
• kubectl installed
• AWS EKS cluster created

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues, ensure your AWS CLI is properly configured and you have the necessary permissions to access the EKS cluster.
